It is about time that the Air Force reversed this very, very bad idea. Pulling Cyber into Intelligence was a power grab that was not thought out, not vetted properly, and was a result of our Comm Community not being able to defend Cyber appropriately as a distinct entity. Finally, common sense has prevailed, and it is being fixed. The 16th AF also needs to split back into two NAFs - Intelligence and Cyber (pulling back out the prior mission set of the 24th AF). As the Chair of the House Cyber Sub Committe stated - it is time to look at Cyber as its own service. As this concept moves forward, it is looking more and more like it will rest with the Army - I personally think it is time to lite a fire under this idea and get it moving faster. And that may be happening in the background, causing this Air Force change. And, it is about time.
Honored to be part of the team making this happen for the Air Force https://lnkd.in/ecus5Wa3
